For what it’s worth, Business Insider reporter John Haltiwanger said that the pro-Trump folks at the parade were not being bothered by those around them. So at least Wednesday’s parade has remained peaceful – at least so far – despite emotions running high on both sides.

The right-wing parade protests come just one day after Rapinoe teed off on Trump during an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper, calling on the president to “do better.”

“Your message is excluding people,” Rapinoe said during the interview, referencing Trump. “You’re excluding me. You’re excluding people that look like me. You’re excluding people of color. You’re excluding .. Americans that maybe support you. I think that we need to have a reckoning with the message that you have, and what you’re saying about making America great again. I think that you’re harking back to an era that was not great for everyone.”
